German Interference Filters

Abstract

The first of Schott and Genossen manufactured "interference filters" which are essentially fixed separation, plane=parallel Fabry and Peret interference plates, the separation being about equal to the wave-length at which maximum transmission is desired and no greater than about 10 wave-lengths. When illuminated with white light, such a system shows a series of bright interference fringes when viewed with transmitted (or reflected) light.
